With the boat show in town, traffic down at the beach is going to be a problem through the weekend. But even when there's nothing special going on, I like to check a traffic map to make sure there isn't some big accident on 95 that's going to ruin my afternoon.
We've added a traffic map for Fort Lauderdale and surrounding areas; actually you can zoom out and pan it to virtually anywhere. Just bookmark the map page and you'll have a ready reference whenever you need it.
